Hi Tim & hurray! just for your amusement.... The other day I added some buttons to a form & the setter methods in the form bean weren't being called when the buttons were pressed. I checked & checked. I copied button code from another jsp/form/action & that worked. I still couldn't get my new code to work so deleted it, adapted the copied code & it worked. I still have no idea why the original code didn't work & that really annoys me. Probably I was hallucinating & see something being in the correct case when it wasn't but I checked so carefully..... I used to train some even more junior people than me & used to tell them that the laws of cause & affect seem a bit fuzzy on the java server side... Terrible thing to say - but it meant don't spend forever sight checking code for errors, go copy some code that works. Not how I used to like to work! What ever doesn;t drive you insane makes you a stronger programmer. cheers - Keith.
